Hi,
Found issues with sysctl mibs security.mac.biba.ptys_equal,
security.mac.lomac.ptys_equal, security.mac.mls.ptys_equal, not supporting
new /dev/pts terminal system in FreeBSD 8, proposed fix for issue.
When using a higher security grade/clearance with mac_mls it prevents
writing to the /dev/pts/5 as its set as mls/low and subjects may not write
to objects with a lower classification level than its own clearance level.
